Python / Python Modern Generative AI and Agents Interview Questions

How do you build a demo web interface for an LLM application using Gradio?

Gradio is Hugging Face's rapid UI library for building interactive machine learning demos with a few lines of Python. It runs locally or deploys instantly to Hugging Face Spaces. For LLM applications, gr.ChatInterface provides a fully featured chat UI out of the box, while gr.Interface handles simpler input-output demos.

# pip install gradio
import gradio as gr
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()

# ── ChatInterface: streaming chat with history
def predict(message: str, history: list) -> str:
    # Convert Gradio history format to OpenAI messages
    messages = [{'role': 'system', 'content': 'You are a helpful assistant.'}]
    for user_msg, ai_msg in history:
        messages.append({'role': 'user',      'content': user_msg})
        messages.append({'role': 'assistant', 'content': ai_msg})
    messages.append({'role': 'user', 'content': message})

    # Stream response
    stream = client.chat.completions.create(
        model='gpt-4o-mini', messages=messages, stream=True
    )
    partial = ''
    for chunk in stream:
        if chunk.choices[0].delta.content:
            partial += chunk.choices[0].delta.content
            yield partial  # Gradio supports generator streaming!

demo = gr.ChatInterface(
    fn=predict,
    title='My AI Assistant',
    description='Ask me anything!',
    examples=['What is RAG?', 'Explain transformers in one sentence.'],
)
demo.launch(server_name='0.0.0.0', server_port=7860)

# ── Interface: simple input-output for non-chat tasks
from transformers import pipeline

classifier = pipeline('text-classification')

def classify(text):
    result = classifier(text)[0]
    return f"{result['label']} ({result['score']:.2%})"

gr.Interface(
    fn=classify,
    inputs=gr.Textbox(label='Enter text'),
    outputs=gr.Text(label='Sentiment'),
    title='Sentiment Classifier',
).launch()

What does yielding (using yield) inside a Gradio predict function enable?
What is the difference between gr.ChatInterface and gr.Interface in Gradio?
